Hot on Thursdays

Erica & Christy(visit the other entrants) had a fabulous blogfest and I had to join in. The rules were simple, share the mug you love to drink out of most. Here's the thing, I'm not one that regularly drinks hot cocoa, hot apple cider, or hot coffee. However, I am one that when the seasons come around (known as fall & winter people) I love to visit the apple orchards for the best cinnamon apple cider money can buy... and this is what it looks like.

Who needs a mug when you have an apple?! Thanks girls for the fabulous blogfest idea... and now, because I can't help myself, here are this weeks truths.

1. I find The Bachelor crazy addictive. Last week psycho Michelle wakes up with a black eye (I swear she did it to herself).2. I finished my manuscript Monday. How did I celebrate? Baked cookies, watched the Bachelor and picked up Wake by Lisa McMann (classy isn't it?).3. I'm a bad blogger. Apparently I am not able to write, read, and blog all at the same time. It makes me crazy. (I just realized I'm not super woman - I was disappointed).4. I don't trust Dr. Drew. Anyone who visits The Bachelor and Teen Mom to give advice is a little shady (no offense Dr. Drew - you could be fo reals for all I know).5. I fell into the trap of American Idol. Steven Tyler is ridiculous (and awesome). Jennifer Lopez seems a little too nice (not sure if it's a show or not), and Randy Jackson... why is he still around (oh thats right, they're still paying him).

Well it looks like TV was on the brainwaves this week. Care to add your thoughts?

Oooh, an apple mug! How rustic (and tasty) LOL! I love this idea. Actually, I'm a huge coffee drinker and short of mainlining it, the mug is pretty important to me so this post is excellent. I enjoy hefty, handmade ones personally:)

I love Sex and the City, and I'm so excited e! is now playing all the episodes in order! I'm also a die hard Real Housewives fan. I can't wait for the Atlanta finale on Sunday, and the reunion for Beverly Hills. Happy Thursday!

Wonder if you can sip the cider with the cinnamon sticks? And Steven Tyler? What is it about his lips I can't take my eyes off of? Or imagine him doing something to me with? Wow, I just managed to end two sentences each with a preposition. Congrats on finishing your mss.

Well I must say I'm highly disappointed that your superwoman qualities are not rising to the task. *rolls eyes* LOL! I don't even get to watch TV. I can only keep up with kids, job, hubby, writing, blogging. That's it. Funny thing is, I don't really miss TV.

Cute apple mug! I'd never have thought of it but it would be perfect for apple cider!! and great for a party. You don't have to worry about anybody breaking them, they all match and they'd be the talk! Terrific!

I love Your apples too, LOL you ask about my Blue apples...Here is the link...

They are also considered a reference to secrets, hidden knowlege in plain sight, the fruit sampled in a certian garden. They have been sort of a theme of mine for a long time. Mmmmm Blue Apple cider.....and congrats on the finish line! I love and hate finishing...the end means you have to sequel to hang out with them again;^)

I've never seen the Bachelor or Teen Mom (is that actually a show?) and after being addicted to American Idol since the first season (even went to CA to sit in the audience one year), we decided not to get sucked in this year. Of course, now you've got me intrigued and I'm thinking I could just check it out to see what S. Tyler is like but I know it's a slippery slope from there.

Thanks for the follow, Jen. Can't wait to dig in & LOVE your sidebar inspiration :) Congrats on finishing your manuscript... and fwiw, I have a huge TBR pile of awesome YA that I haven't touched since Christmas because I'm the same way. Can't focus on more than one thing at a time.

I want to know where you get the apple cider in apples! That's so cool! And I pretty much second all of your truths. Except superwoman. I still believe you are her. And trying to convince us all you're not isn't going to work.

I have an uber crush on Dr. Drew! So much do I crush on him that I want to become a celebrity and then get an addiction so that I can go to rehab to be treated by him. Hmmmmm, I think my addiction will be apple cider in apple mugs!

um, this mug might just be a fave! very cool. my kids would LOVE it. yes, i confessed to watching the bachelor on my blog recently, too. i missed the beginning last week.... so she didn't even know how she got a black eye. ????? she's GOT to go. oh, wait. this is about the mugs. THANKS SO MUCH FOR PARTICIPATING!!!!

Mmmmmm - I would love to drink cider straight from an apple! Yum! I've got to go find me some! :) And I just can't watch the batchelor anymore...I know. But, no one ever really falls in love. It bums me out.. :( Congrats, again, on finishing your MS. You may not think so, but I'm kind of convinced you ARE superwoman! :)

Those apples are too cute. I just noticed Easy A listed as one of your favs on your Blogger profile. I just watched it last week, twice. I will own it. SO good. I gotta, I gotta, I gotta, I gotta pocketfull, a pocketful of sunshine...: )
